Sense and Senseibility: October 2006
http://senseandsenseibility.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 16, 2006. Blood in the rearview mirror. Ok, ok ok. The last post was a cop-out, I'll admit it. I just pasted an old file that happened to be on my computer. I promise though new stuff is coming, and it's quite excellent. Before I break off an another massive, I need to take wednesday off to finish this story entry, I will leave you with a small anecdote about my drive to work today. Is it some kind of Enrish mistake, did they mean to write.ummm.brood, or blued, or brewed? I have not been ...

Sense and Senseibility: April 2006
http://senseandsenseibility.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 27, 2006. Nono this can't be? For two or three of my classes, I have spent time AND effort preparing lessons. Not only have I planned lessons, but planned lessons that review and reinforce the things they learned in the previous lessons. I actually cared whether they were learning or not. Is this possible? Am I growing as a person? Could I really be maturing as a human being? How could this have happened in a single month, what cosmic colonoscopy could have reversed my karma so fast?

Sense and Senseibility: August 2006
http://senseandsenseibility.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 29, 2006. Prelude to a Binge. The passersby included an old Japanese man who upon seeing an exposed breast had the curious reaction of crossing his arms and yelling Dama! I walked home after having maybe 6 or 7 drinks over the course of about the same amount of hours, I was by no means drunk, or incapacitated. So knowing I had to be at school around 11:30, I set my alarm for 10:30 AM and fell into a fitful slumber. I arrived something like 20 minutes late to the class, and bullshitted thr...

Sense and Senseibility: June 2006
http://senseandsenseibility.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 26, 2006. The Best Birthday on Anti-Biotics.continued. El Charro has eagle eyes for spotting white people in Japan. He gets very excited and his eyes start twitching a little bit. For a few minutes the trip becomes an old lassie re-run. What is it boy? You need to pee? El Charro shakes his head. Do you want some Ramen? Is it white people? Did you see white people somewhere? The other group split and we stood around trying to figure out what the hell we were going to do for the rest of the ni...

Sense and Senseibility: May 2006
http://senseandsenseibility.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 20, 2006. The best week on anti-biotics.ever.continued. My Birthday Part I. I got on the subway, and wandered around for about ten minutes before I found the clinic. Being an international clinic the staff spoke English, which made things easier, I gave them my alien card (lovingly referred to as the gaijin card) and my Japanese National Healthcare card, and filled out some forms. I waited no more than ten minutes before I was called into the office of my boy, Doc Schempler. I am gonna @#$!

Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Sense and Senseibility: September 2006
http://senseandsenseibility.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 07, 2006. The intense heat of the previous day had done some damage though, and everywhere my foot met my sandals yesterday was rubbed raw, so I went down to the convini (convenience store) and bought some band-aids for the sore spots which seemed to do the trick. As we neared the castle I kept snapping pictures, it seemed to be the only actual photo worthy thing I’d seen in a while. Notice, there are no pictures of me standing bemusedly in front of the castletourist douches. Suffice ...

Sense and Senseibility: March 2006

Thursday, March 30, 2006. First Day of Skewl. On the way out he had his hand on my left shoulder, and then on my back, and then.What the $*&%! Posted by Just1Wheat at 4:12 AM. Tuesday, March 28, 2006. Well Saturday came, I have no phone, nor anybody to call locally to show me around, nor do I have voltage adaptors to plug in my computer, which doesn't have working internet yet anyway, so I decide to wander until I find something useful. With that I traverse the mean streets of Tokuyama. The Japanese are ...

Sense and Senseibility: July 2006
http://senseandsenseibility.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 13, 2006. They giggled gregariously, but we weren’t getting anywhere, we needed to work on the driver. El Angel Solo, once again proving her vast worth, refused to flirt with the driver, even though she loves Japanese boys. To my dismay the car drove away in the opposite direction, but I was still holding a bag of liquor, so the night wouldn’t be a total wash. Posted by Just1Wheat at 8:21 AM. Wednesday, July 05, 2006. All Signs Point to Insanity. This was not a pleasant hangover. When the ...
